Default VX trans into 96-00 EX. Worth the effort?

I just picked up an auto 2000 EX that I'm using to travel with. The only purpose of this car is to save money on gas. Would putting in a 92-95 vx/cx trans worth the effort? I have everything to do the 5 speed swap minus the trans itself. Has anyone done this swap and what kind of gains did you see for gas mileage?

You'll see mpg gains, but if you're in an area where you have hills or incline/decline roads you'll hate the gearing.
